I'm so glad we found Barry!

Barry is more than just an expert photographer: he's also an endurance athlete, professional dress displayer, and social butterfly. He showed up before the bride and groom in order to take pictures of the decorations, venue, flowers, and wedding dress. It was important to us to limit the amount of time we spent taking pictures, and the number of pictures Barry was able to take in such a short time period was really impressive. He was flexible in order to get us some great shots while still getting us back to the celebration quickly. My maid of honor joked that Barry was taking her job, because he was so efficient at making sure my dress's train was perfectly arranged in every photo. I especially appreciated how sociable he was all day. He was self-sufficient and out of the way--at times, I forgot he was there (in the best way!). He humored the bridal party's inside jokes and his lighthearted attitude helped me feel more comfortable with the awkwardness of kissing a million times for the camera. My aunt is also a photographer, and she avoided taking pictures at the venue because she was worried about stepping on Barry's toes. Instead, Barry handed her his backup camera and put her to work photographing the dance floor. I'm so glad she was able to be involved like that--I know she appreciated it, and I'm excited to have even more photos! Barry sent initial photos *the next day* after our wedding. It was wonderful to be able to look over them while the day was still fresh in our minds. The final edits came just a few weeks later, and they look amazing. Barry was a joy to work with and I'm so glad we chose him as our photographer.
